“As a professional narrator, I seek out audiobooks that don’t just elevate the written story but challenge me to be a better performer myself. With these listens, I had a definitive Before and After—I became a stronger storyteller because I heard them.” —Will Damron, award-winning narrator
This one truly changed my experience of life as an American. Coates’s eloquence and incisiveness make him one of the most important thinkers of our time, and hearing him tell his story in his own voice is profound.
Quite simply the scariest goddamn audiobook I’ve ever heard. Listening to a horror masterpiece told in the youthful voice of Delanie Nicole Gill—who can portray adults, children, monsters, and everything in between—will haunt you long after the final chapter.
Noticing a pattern here? I love a good horror listen, and this is the best book from the king of the genre. Terrifying not only in concept but because King grounds it in an aching family story of loss and grief. Unforgettable.
This is the audiobook we never stop talking about in our house. In addition to being one of the most gifted performers alive today (those accents!), Noah is staggeringly intelligent and a master of human observation.
Yes, I know, I’m THAT husband giving a shout-out to his wife. But this one is remarkable on many levels: brilliantly conceived story drawing on folklore and cultural trauma, dynamic characters you can’t help but love, and a performance that is a master class in narrating fiction. January really got to flex her muscles here, and you can tell she was relishing every second of it.
